Cereal At Midnight

Todd Phillips must think he’s either died and gone to heaven or is perpetually living in hell. The better part of a decade ago, the filmmaker behind The Hangover films had an axe to grind. He wanted to make comedies, but was becoming all too aware that comedies were no longer profitable at the box office; to his frustration, one of the only kinds of entertainment that people would still actually leave their house to see was the comic book movie, a genre that he hated. He began crafting Joker , a resentful satire of the comic book film, pulling DC’s most-known villain out of the pages of comics and dropping him whole cloth into the world of Martin Scorsese. In fact, he even approached Scorsese to help make the film, noting that it would be a meta-commentary on the ouvre of the man who invented the 1970s urban psychotic and thus a whole sub-genre. Scorsese ultimately declined..and don’t think that didn’t add fuel to the fire. Fast forward to 2019. Joker , conceived as the anti-comic-boo...

The latest DC Animated Universe movie transports Batman, the Bat-Family, and his Rogue's Gallery to feudal Japan! Written, produced, and directed by a Japanese crew, how does this original anime stack up against some of Batman's classic adventures? Is Ninja Batman as cool as he sounds? Why does Robin look like he cuts his own hair? Check out this non-spoiler review from Cereal At Midnight and see if this Bat flies or ends up crashing through a second-story window.

I hate having to write this.  Batman and Harley Quinn  should have been great. This movie reunites some of the people behind the now-legendary 1990s TV show Batman: The Animated Series  and clearly was intended to point directly to the iconic and groundbreaking cartoon adventures of the Caped Crusader.   To my memory, we haven't had a Warner Brothers animated Batman-specific movie directly connected to the '90s series in years.   Kevin Conroy returns here as the voice of Batman, but we're also treated to the return of Loren Lester as the voice of Dick Grayson, aka Robin/Nightwing. With many direct connections to the animated series, a spotlight on Harley Quinn, a character who is more popular than ever, and a story by Bruce Timm, the father of Batman: TAS,  what could possibly go wrong?
